Microsoft’s Cortana

While Apple has the largest portion of the smartphone market in the United States, Microsoft owns a meager 10% of the market. After falling behind for quite some time, Microsoft has followed Google and Apple’s lead to create it’s own mobile personal assistant, known as Cortana, which will be available on the Windows Phone 8.1 operating system.

Similar to Siri and Google Now, Cortana is designed to simplify your life; from answering simple questions to making reservations at a restaurant, Cortana is a great tool with a wide-range of features.

Truth be told, Cortana might be more impressive than any other mobile personal assistant! For example, Cortana has the ability to learn your behavior patterns, in order to offer information relevant to your interests. Ultimately, Cortana is the entry level of artificial intelligence. It’s a huge first step towards enabling a more natural interaction between humans and computers.
